Among the Violets

 It's all about TEXTURE today over at Simon Says Stamp and Show...

 SOOOOOoooooo with that in mind I create a small collage of items that  I LOVE...  I love this background paper from Tim Holtz... since I use to work in NYC and only a few blocks from Times Square it really screams at me.... so I have been hoarding this piece of paper and decided to use it today...  

 Then I had this adorable little picture of two little faeries that has been sitting on my work table ... and put that onto it too...  


A block print from one that I made a couple of years ago found it's way to the top of the work table... and so did this flourish...  do you have a bin where you keep things that you have cut out and not used... well at time these things find their way to the top of the heap and then onto the work table...  like they have legs!!!!   it was white, so I colored it... and added it as a green bough....  and added some violets...

 Of course the Violets are a natural home for all faeries so I had to add them...  and added some leaves, which is where the faeries can make a wonderful home underneath them...   the violets are also from Pretties by Bonnie collection that will be released soon... 


This is very textured...  with all the layers... but then I added a bow and also added liquid pearls in the centers of the flowers... I colored my flowers with my Distress markers... do you have them yet??? I really don't know how I lived without them... 

I use them more than any other marker set I have...  as I know the colors, love the colors and find them most useful for all my creations...  

I think I might use this as a cover for a journal...as a gift... but not really sure what I will use it for... I love it anyway... and it will find a good home...  

Thanks for the inspiration... Simon Says Stamp and Show

Love, Light and Peace.. Bonnie
